Ceremony Venue

One of the oldest churches in Davao City which was founded in 1949, it was renovated in 2011 which had evolved into a beautiful church. It was the first fully air-conditioned church in the city that has the longest aisle.

The parish of Sta. Ana Church was separated from San Pedro Parish and canonically erected on the same day in July 26, 1949, which was also the feast day of their patron saint. Due to the increasing population, the need to have another parish was the reason for its existence.

In August 1948, the Foreign Missions Society of Quebec in the Philippines had acquired a property at the following areas - San Pedro Hospital, San Pedro College, PME Regional House, Holy Cross of Davao College, CYO Gym, and the Sta. Ana Parish Church.

The parish was served by the PME Fathers, but in 1995 was turned over to the Archdioceses with Msgr. Leonardo Vicente, DD as it's first Filipino Parish Priest. July 24, 1999, Sta. Ana was designated as a shrine not because of it's beauty or size rather as a church visited by the faithful as pilgrims for the special devotion.
